Jacob Kenedy's (Bocca di Lupo) single-site tribute to his Louisiana roots: a canalside pub serving gumbo, crawfish, po'boys and blackened chicken with live jazz most evenings. Michelin Bib Gourmand since 2018.

Real Talk

What to actually expect.

Come for the atmosphere

Reviewers love the canalside setting and live jazz more than the cooking. Treat it as a drinks-and-music spot with solid Cajun food rather than a dining-first destination.

Service can lag at peak

Understaffing is a recurring note, with slow bar service and long food waits when it is busy. Go with time to spare.
